Pattern altitude is not published for KTDW. Use standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston unless local procedure says otherwise. There is no control tower, so self-announce and build the pattern with good spacing. Runway 23 has right traffic. Runway 17 has right traffic. That makes the pattern picture important on both runway families. Watch your altitude closely. The field sits at 3,648.5 ft MSL, so density altitude can matter on a warm day. Confirm the runway in use before joining. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for published airport notes.
